First time flaring

[BumbleT]

My little apple is getting so big! i decided it was time for another picture post of his growth :D

I showed him one of my hand mirrors also. first time i have ever seen him flare..... it was adorable.

I'm also not sure about his fin type but I'm placing my money on VT.

He looks amazing! He's not a VT. He's actually a DeT. (Delta) He looks so amazing! Great find! :P

@LebronTheBetta
Oh wow! that's great! i got him as a baby and i'm just so pleased with what a wonderful little guy he has become.

[LebronTheBetta]

You got him as a baby? That's even better! Not much people get their babies to adulthood. He's pretty good for a pet store fish. :)

i think he might be a roundtail, not a DeT.

@LebronTheBetta
haha, yeah. i really couldn't pass this little guy up when i first saw him. i really had no idea pet stores sold them so young.


@homegrown terror
I have a super hard time with telling delta, round tail, and young VTs apart! it may be easier when he's older.

[LebronTheBetta]

Yeah, pet stores shouldn't do that to animals that are so young. As Terror said, he *might* be a Roundtail but I dunno.

@LebronTheBetta
It makes me very sad to know that most of these little guys don't make it because they are so young D:
No worries on the tail type, it might be easier to tell once he's had a bit longer to grow, he's still rather young.

[LebronTheBetta]

Yeah, it's really sad. :( Oh, well... How old is he approximately?

[MyRainbowBettaFish]

he is adorable! And no, like Lebron said, he is a DT, not a VT. Look in my albums and you can see that my betta, Honeyomb, is a VT. :)
